90 seconds in a life of hell
« on: May 20, 2018, 11:52:24 AM »
Sometimes, after all the anticipation, trail cam captures are not that fun to watch.  :'(

I have almost no words (other than "where did the sheds end up").

Boy, that's a tough one to watch.  Thanks for sharing.

The only good news is these animals won't suffer too long.  They are easy prey.  I know you don't want to hear that, but it is a fact.

I don't know the answer to this problem, but I do hope a solution is soon found.

The solution is wolves, they're going nuts for hoof rot.  They'll breed and breed, then the hoof rot will be gone


Then watchout, a glut of wolves with nothing to eat.

What is most disappointing is the fact that a small herd has not been captured for research on this issue. A captive audience  for discovery would go a long way to a solution.

Who knows?  If it is something as simple as a mineral deficiency.

In archery we have something like the way of the superior man. When the archer misses the center of the target, he turns round and seeks for the cause of his failure in himself.

An animal shouldn't have to suffer like that

You would think they would have captured some to study?

I really hate to see an animal having to survive like that. However, his body condition did not look as bad as I would have thought, I wonder if any of the elk eventually overcome hoof rot and continue to survive? I also noticed that elk must have smelled human scent on the camera or heard it running.
